Use of the Appliance
Before first use:
• Unpack and ensure all packaging is removed
from the appliance.
• Wash the lid and sections of the product
thoroughly. Use a small amount of mild detergent
with warm water. Clean the power base with a
soft, damp sponge.
1. Place the food items that you want to use in
one of the removable sections. All of the sections
should be stacked in a way that will allow them to
be balanced but so that air will be able to circulate
freely between them.
2. Put the sections on to the power base, being
sure that they are held securely in place.
3. Place the lid on the top of the section.
4. Plug the product into an earthed socket and
turn the appliance on by putting the switch to the
“ON” position – the indicator light will turn red.
5. When you finish using the appliance turn it off
by putting the switch the “OFF” position.
6. Let the products cool down and place the dried
products into a container to safely keep the food
and put the container into your freezer.

dehydrator in the way mentioned above.
Additional Instructions:
• Ensure that you wash food items before putting
them into the product. Do not put wet food items
in the product.
• Do not insert the sections if they have water in
them.
• Food drying depends on the item size.
When drying the products, the drying capabilities
will correlate with the height of the section. The
sections’ positions can be switched with one
another, allowing for you to switch them if you
need certain food items to dry faster than others.
The lower the section, the faster the food will dry.
The duration of drying also depends on the
temperature and humidity of the room and the
thickness of the pieces.
Drying Fruits:
• Wash the pieces of fruit.
• Peel/remove the skin if needed and cut off the
spoiled parts.
• Slice the fruit into pieces that can be placed
freely between the sections.
Drying Vegetables:
• Wash the vegetables.
• Peel/remove the skin if needed and cut off the
spoiled parts.
• Slice the vegetables into pieces that can be
placed freely between the sections.
• It is best to boil the vegetable for 1-5 minutes
and then placing into cold water before drying
them and putting them into the product.
Storage of Dried Fruits/Vegetables:
• Containers that are going to be used for storage
of dried products should be clean and dry.
• For better storage of dried fruits, use glass
containers with metal lids and place the container
into an area with a temperature of 5-20°C.
ATTENTION: Do not place hot or warm products
into the containers with the dried food items for
storage.
